ABOUT ME

​

Juan Ponce is a freelance writer from Los Angeles, California. He received a B.A. in History from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA). In addition to History, Juan studied Screenwriting, Literature, Film and Television Production.

​

Since 2018 he’s produced multiple shorts, comic issues, and graphic novels with amazing creators from across the world. He’s worked with publishers such as Marvel Comics, A Wave Blue World, and Action Lab Entertainment. His work spans multiple genres and themes. From slice of life stories of heartbreak, to modern day fantasy tales, to action-comedies.

​

In March 2020 his superhero comic book, The World's Strongest, was released by Action Lab Entertainment. The book was met with critical acclaim upon its release. Later that year Juan self-published a short sports-drama story titled, A Match. In September, 2021 his short story, The Recording Studio, was featured in A Wave Blue World’s horror anthology Dead Beats 2. A few months later Juan made his Marvel Comics debut in the pages of Marvel Voices: Comunidades. A beautiful anthology highlighting Latinx Marvel heroes and creators. In March 2022 Juan’s graphic novel Thirty-Three was fully funded on the crowdfunding site Zoop.  The over-the-top dark action comedy and family drama garnered very positive critic and reader reviews.

​

In the Summer of 2022 Juan was the writer of a 6-chapter story arc for Marvel’s Voices Unlimited: America Chavez. His story arc (Voices issues 12-17) released exclusively in the Marvel Unlimited App. Most recently, in Fall of 2023, he wrote a backup story for Marvel's Scarlet Witch #9. 

 

When he’s not writing Juan enjoys spending time with his lovely daughter, wife, and their adorable dog Fifi. They're his biggest inspiration.
